Ah, okay. Didn’t know that.

Well, I hope you’ve got some better idea then ☺

There’s still
• drop dash
• just manage the symlink, no diversions
but I feel these wouldn’t be liked.

JFTR, Clint Adams and I have been working to get posh up
to the task of being a /bin/sh as well, so any solution
should be able to not only have GNU bash and dash and mksh
as /bin/sh but also, eventually, posh and ksh93 (if they
add an “alias local=typeset” builtin at least).
